Power Tool Batteries

Why Your Power Tool Battery Matters

A worn-out battery is one of the most common reasons a perfectly good tool ends up sitting in the garage. Instead of replacing the whole drill, saw, or driver, a replacement battery gets you back to full power for a fraction of the cost. It's one of the easiest upgrades you can make to your workshop or job site setup.

We carry batteries for the full range of cordless power tools, including:

• Drills and drivers
• Impact wrenches and drivers
• Circular saws and reciprocating saws
• Nail guns and staplers
• Grinders and multi-tools
• Lawn and garden power tools

Whether you're a contractor who can't afford downtime or a weekend DIYer keeping an older tool running, a fresh battery restores the runtime and performance you had on day one, often for less than half the cost of a new tool.

How to Choose the Right Power Tool Battery

Power tool batteries aren't universal, so getting the right match matters. Here's what to check before you order:

• Brand and model: Battery packs are built to fit a specific manufacturer's tool platform. A DeWalt battery won't lock into a Milwaukee or Makita tool, even if the voltage looks the same.
• Voltage: This needs to match your original battery exactly. Our batteries range from 2.4V for small precision tools up to 82V for heavy-duty equipment.
• Chemistry: Li-Ion batteries are the current standard, offering lighter weight and longer runtime. Older tools may use NiCd or NiMH, which we also stock for owners keeping legacy tools running.
• Capacity (Ah): A higher amp-hour rating means longer runtime between charges. If you're upgrading from an older battery, a higher-Ah replacement can extend your working time.

If you're not sure which battery your tool takes, check the label on your existing battery pack or your tool's manual for the exact model number. You can also browse by brand using the links on this page, or reach out to our customer support team for help finding the right match.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different brand's battery on my tool?

A: No. Power tool batteries are built with brand-specific connectors and locking mechanisms, so a battery from one manufacturer won't physically fit a different brand's tool, even if the voltage matches. Always replace your battery with one made for your specific tool brand and platform.

How do I know what voltage or model my tool needs?

A: Check the label on your current battery pack or your tool's owner's manual for the voltage and model number. If you no longer have the original battery, the model number printed on the tool itself will also help us match you with the correct replacement.

Can I upgrade from a NiCd or NiMH battery to Li-Ion?

A: In many cases, yes, as long as your charger and tool support the newer chemistry. Li-Ion batteries are lighter and hold their charge longer, but double check compatibility with your specific tool model before switching, since some older tools are not designed for Li-Ion power delivery.

How long should I charge a new power tool battery?

A: Most batteries fully charge overnight, though many chargers have an indicator light that tells you when charging is complete. Charge times vary depending on the battery's capacity and how discharged it was to start.

How do I dispose of my old power tool battery?

A: Power tool batteries should never go in the regular trash. Most local battery retailers, hardware stores, and scrap yards accept old batteries for proper recycling. If you're not sure where to take yours, our support team can point you in the right direction.
